Waggin’ Tales Leslie Jordan and Family Say Goodbye to Their Adored Friend Conway by Leslie, Cricket, Janet and Peggy Jordan Over seven years ago, we got Conway Twitty from Southern Comfort Maltese Rescue. He has brought us so much joy and laughter. As he was no spring chicken when we got him, we recently had to make the hardest decision a pet owner has to make; but it was the right one. He is yapping away and running after his duckie in doggie heaven. He was a little bundle of cuddly love and will be missed forever by the Jordan Family! He gave us seven years of unfettered happiness.

SCMR Bids Farewell to our Beloved General Colin Powell Our General arrived at SCMR four years ago much neglected and unappreciated. With his gentle nature and dignified presence, he became a guardian angel in his foster home. His blindness never prevented him from getting where he needed to go or playing with a fellow foster. He just became a part of the family since he kept getting passed over for adoption. Those who passed him up will never know what they missed. He was a blessing to all who knew him. And his foster mom misses tucking him into his bed each night with his blankie. Goodnight, sweet prince. SCMR Wish List SCMR NEEDS FOSTER HOMES! PLEASE Expenses are going up and up.

Left: Napoleon gives his stamp of approval for one of SCMR’s donated beds. Y Y Volunteers Are Y From Venus! Last year, Susan Story’s youngest grandson, Chase, asked if she would help him with his Eagle Scout project. He knew she loves to build things and especially has a passion for helping animals. So this dog bed project was right up her alley. His project is called M.O.B. (My Own Bed) and involved making elevated beds for animals at Chase’s local shelter & Humane Society. The beds would actually belong to the animal and would go with them when they were adopted. Chase is working on getting corporate sponsors for donations of materials and money for the beds and for a Meet & Greet area at the shelter where families can spend time with the animal to make sure they are a perfect fit for the dog/cat in their Furever Home. Chase will also teach younger scouts to make the beds; so this will be a long term project for his community, the animals, and future scouts. Susan currently has fourteen dogs and six cats. Chase has five dogs, all rescues. They want to make sure the beds they make will fit the different needs for all whether they are young or old, healthy or disabled. Ultimately Susan SCMR owes a debt of gratitude to Lyle Prouse for and Chase want to pay it forward for the love and joy their flying Teddy and Lucy to their foster home.

But Napoleon has one special need...he is a diabetic and has to have two insulin shots a day. He is SO good about his shots...never flinches. And he is well regulated on Vetsulin. Napoleon also has a special diet that will need to be maintained. He is a super sweet little nine pound, purebred toy poodle and is nine years old. He’s not a big cuddler, but he does like to be close by...close enough to get his ears rubbed while the two of you are watching the tv. He is leash trained and would love to take a walk when it is not real hot. Plus he is house trained and will use a pee pad if he must. But he does like to go outside to take care of business. Diabetic dogs like Napoleon still have a lot of love to give. And his care is not difficult. Please consider giving Napoleon a second chance. He has been passed around from owner to owner and just wants a place to call his own home furever. He is being fostered in Largo, Florida. Napoleon likes to rock out in the rocking chair!

  • Family Treasures Family Treasures Preface
    Family Treasures Family Treasures Preface The original purpose of this book was to be a birthday present to my grandmother, Edna Nelson, how- ever over time it has grown into much more than that. This book is now in its second edition and many corrections and improvements have been made to the text found in the original version. Additional research by Vaughn Nielsen (Vaughn was a great- grandson of Lars Hansen Christiansen), Allan Christiansen and his sister Marilyn have provided new information on Lars Hans Christiansen, the parents of Lars and the generation before that. The section on Myrtle Jensen was totally reworked with the story submitted by Izola Vincent, who gleaned Myrtle's diaries to create a brief history of her life. This book at first was only to be a history of the family of Moses Josephat Christiansen, however as more and more information was made available concerning the preceding generations I expanded the scope of the book to include more stories on those generations preceding Moses Christiansen. After collecting all the stories together on the computer they were put into a desktop publisher, which allowed me the flexibility to modify and add to the stories. To spice up the book a bit I knew it needed some pictures. I first drew upon my grandmother, Edna Nelson, who had some pictures that were used in a previous book, The Legacy of Norman Nels Nelson. These pictures were not enough and I knew where to get more. Aunt Nellie Christensen had been the de facto historian of the Christiansen family for a number of years and she also had a lot of pictures of the family from many years back.

  • Little River Band
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DECEMBER 23, 2008 BOULEVARD CASINO PRESENTS LITTLE RIVER BAND LIVE AT THE RED ROBINSON SHOW THEATRE SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 28 Little River Band was the first Australian band to successfully conquer foreign markets from an Australian base. Within eight months of their birth in 1975, they had already scored three Australian Top 20 singles and two Top Ten albums. Then in 1976, their self-titled album was released in the US and Canada and they began their first of many tours across North America. Headlining their own major shows and touring internationally with the likes of the Doobie Brothers, Supertramp, America and the Eagles was a huge learning curve that honed Little River Band into one of the finest live bands. Record success ran alongside … total record sales around the world eclipsed the twenty-five million mark with sixteen hit singles by 1985 as well as gold, platinum and multi-platinum album sales awards. Their hits include “It’s a Long Way There,” “Help Is On Its Way,” “Happy Anniversary,” “Help Is On Its Way,” “Reminiscing,” “Lady,” “Lonesome Loser” and “Cool Change.” Today, Little River Band is as strong as ever … there is a new fusion of spontaneity, rock & roll and blues anchored by American bass player, Wayne Nelson who joined the band in 1980 and made his debut a year later as lead vocalist on the band’s hits, “Night Owls” and “Take It Easy On Me.” Guitarist and vocalist, Greg Hind has been an integral part of the band’s current sound since 2000. Before joining the group, Hind played and sang with many well-known artists including Thelma Houston, Kylie Minogue and Bachelor Girl … he shares vocal duty and is instrumental in looking for ways to keep the band’s arrangement fresh and current.

    Little River Band – littleriverband.com LITTLE RIVER BAND – A LONG WAY HERE Little River Band was the first Australian band to successfully conquer foreign markets from an Australian base. Within eight months of their birth, LRB had already scored three Australian Top 20 singles and two Top Ten albums. In 1976, after their self-titled debut album was released in the USA, the long grind of 13 US tours in eight years had begun. By 1982 they became the only act – from anywhere – to have a top ten US single for six consecutive years. Headlining their own major shows in America, and touring internationally with the likes of the Doobie Brothers, Supertramp, America, and the Eagles was a huge learning curve that honed LRB into one of the finest live bands in the world. Record success ran alongside – total record sales around the world have eclipsed the 25 million mark. 16 hit singles by 1985, as well as gold, platinum, and multi-platinum album sales awards. All-told LRB have notched up eight top 10 singles in the US, where just two of their songs, Reminiscing and Lady, have more than 8 million radio plays between them. Through the years LRB has thrived as a highly respected and constantly in-demand outfit, going about their craft with a dedication to excellence and professionalism that few, if any, can match. The Little River Band of 2007 is as strong as ever. There is a new fusion of spontaneity, rock and roll, and blues, anchored by American bass player Wayne Nelson, who began his LRB career in 1980.
